Shingle Style Family Vacation Retreat House

Shingle style houses found in New England’s seaside resorts at the turn of the century inspired the design of this family vacation retreat. The house is overlooking a lake and is made of stone and wood cladding. Thanks to that and asymmetrical lines of its roof and walls blends naturally into the landscape. From a dramatic two-story dining room at its center, the plan curves gently toward the lake, affording light and panoramic views of the water to both wings of the home. As the exterior as the interior they both done with touches of luxury. In a playful touch, a blue light in the roof-top cupola has become a nighttime landmark for residents of the lake.

Beautiful in white

National Symphony Orchestra Showhouse

The modern walnut Parsons table, a trio of sleek steel pendant lights, and a pared-down tablescape are blended with grand wing chairs. "Balancing old things with new things gives a room great energy," says designer Michael Roberson.

White . . . minimalist, magical, or a little of both? The question remains if white qualifies as a real color or not. Some designers wouldn't think of creating a room sans pigment-laden appointments. Others use it as a foolproof mechanism for sophistication. In bedrooms, white and variations of it lead the way to a restful snooze. Dining rooms with white as their palettes sing in refinement and class. Teamed with black, and high-glass elements, the color reads glamorous and seductive. Warm white offers comfort. Feast your eyes on these colorless treats from showhouses across the country.
